I've had this problem a few times, brought it to the shop where it was made, they say it's a software clash, but other than that, they can't tell me anything else.

When I install a game, it will ask for the second disk, and finishing with that, ask me for the first disk again. Then the computer just turns off itself, black screen. And at the end, the games are not installed.

Try copying one of the games or something else like a downloaded program to your hard drive and installing from there (not a cd). Does it work? Look in your event logs in admin tools for any errors, too.

Yes, they're legal, Tony Hawk Underground 2 and Knights Of The Old Republic 2. Others too.
Basically anyone which has to change discs and change back will have a problem.
Oh, yeah, if I install from the computer after copying to the hard drive, what do I do when it says to change disc?
